Tales from a down-shifted family
- Making the most of modest means
After such a pig out yesterday I thought it was time to get back into it step up the training and burn off some of the calories! Last week was a recovery week so a fairly easy week for me with 2 rest days! Here’s my training diary: This meant that I was fairly well...
My parents are here visiting for the weekend so yesterday after our ride at Nant yr Arian I jumped on the Turbo Trainer for an hour of 14 Ramps ranging from 120% to 150% of FTP whilst they went for a walk in the dunes. Here’s what I did: In the meantime Morgan ‘Ninny’ and Grandad...
Morgan was at home with me again today so we had a morning of MTB action planned. We first had to collect my car from the garage where it had been having some surgery to get it through the MOT: New exhaust centre section New Tail Pipe New brake pipes New brake fluid New Anti-roll...
Half term here again already, so after making camp chairs in the morning Morgan and I headed over to the beach with his kite and the GoPro. Last time we tried this it started pouring with rain. This time it was much better, the wind was better and there were even a few small patches...
I’m beginning to get my race schedule ready for 2013. I’m not planning on doing a huge raft of races this year for a number of reasons. First is the fact that last year was quite a long season with races from the 1st April right through to the big race at the World Championships in...

As you may know, my performance at the Rother Valley Triathlon last year meant that I qualified to compete for Team GB in the European Age-Group Triathlon Championships this year. After having such a good time in New Zealand at the World Champs, I wasn’t going to pass up on another opportunity for some travel...
Well, that didn’t quite go to plan. The idea was to head over to the beach to make the most of the sunshine, get the kites out, fly them for a bit and then mess around trying to attach my GoPro to them to do some aerial photography. Morgan and I headed over with all...
Turbo Trainer throughout the winter can become a little dull (although I quite enjoy it!). So, to spice things up I’ve been following one of the TrainerRoad training plans. The plans themselves are OK, although by necessity they are a little generic. That’s fine at this time of year for me though as I’m only really doing...
I’ve not long got back from a lovely early morning run. The run itself wasn’t anything spectacular – I’m still suffering with a chesty cough and as it was a cold frosty morning I decided to take it easy and stuck to a gentle jog all the way around my 6.5 mile loop, but it...
